He comes from
A foreign place
An island far away
Intrigues me
With every move
Till I'm breathless
I'm helpless
Can't keep my cool
Steals my heart
When he takes my hand
And we dance
To the rhythm of the band
I feel his fingertips
Grip my hips
And I slip as we dip
Into a realm bliss
Mama use to warn me to
Beware those Latin lovers
She said I gave my heart
Too soon and that's how
I became your mother
I said ay mama
You seem to forget
I'm not in love yet
Sweet talk don't
Win me over
But I realize
Big brown eyes
Can hypnotize
When he says
I am full blood Boricua
Reads the tattoo on his arm
He tells me Mami I need ya
And my heartbeat
Pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero
I begin to give in
With no hesitation
Can't help my infatuation
It's pure infatuation
Skin the color of cinnamon
His eyes light up
And I melt within
Feels so good
It must be a sin
I can't stop what I started
I'm givin' in
He brings life
To my fantasies
Sparks a passion
Inside of me
Finds the words
When I cannot speak
In the silence
His heartbeat
Is music to me
Mama used to warn me not
To rush love with another
She said
I'm not trying to lecture
I just care about
My daughter
Ay mama
You seem to forget
I never will let
A man control my emotions
But when he smiles
I feel like a little child
When he says
I am full blood Boricua
Reads the tattoo on his arm
He tells me Mami I need ya
And my heartbeat
Pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero
I begin to give in
With no hesitation
Can't help my infatuation
It's pure infatuation
Caught between
My mama's words
And the way I feel inside
I'm wanting to
Explore his world
But part of me wants to hide
Should I risk it
Can't resist it
This has caught me
By surprise
Should I let him take me to
Puerto Rico
I can't hold back
No more let's go tonight
Papi hold me
Say that you adore me
Never let go
Never leave me lonely
Papi hold me
Say that you adore me
Never let go
Never leave me lonely
I am full blood Boricua
Reads the tattoo on his arm
He tells me Mami I need ya
And my heartbeat
Pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero
I begin to give in
With no hesitation
Can't help my infatuation
It's pure infatuation
Infatuated hey
